Lavender Blueberry Bar Soap: Berry Season on the Soap Dish
Save
In West Michigan, blueberry season and lavender season overlap, and for a few weeks every summer it feels like the whole county smells like fruit and flowers. The Lavender Blueberry Bar Soap puts that overlap on your soap dish: juicy, sun-ripened blueberry with soft lavender, fruity first and floral second.
The scent
Blueberry leads, sweet and bright, and lavender follows with a gentle floral note. It is a cheerful scent rather than a heavy one, which makes it a good family soap. Kids tend to like it because it smells like fruit, and grown-ups tend to like it because it does not smell like candy.
Using it at the sink and in the shower
- At the sink: wet your hands and the bar, work up a lather, then rinse.
- In the shower: lather in your hands or on a washcloth for body washing.
- After use: rinse the bar quickly and set it where water can drain away.
How to make a bar last
The biggest difference between a bar that lasts weeks and one that melts in days is what it sits on. A draining dish or slatted rack lets the bar dry between uses. A flat dish that holds a puddle turns the bottom soft and mushy. Keep the bar out of the direct shower spray, and if you have several bars going, rotate them so each one gets time to dry out.
| Spot | Tip |
|---|---|
| Kitchen sink | Use a draining dish, away from the faucet splash |
| Shower | Set it on a high ledge out of the spray |
| Linen closet | Unopened bars can lightly scent a shelf until you need them |
Bundling bars as a gift
Bar soap is one of the easiest gifts to stack. Tie Blueberry together with a couple of other scents for a colorful bundle, or tuck one into a summer-themed box in the Gift Box Builder. It looks sweet sitting on a guest bathroom sink, too.
